Rookie had been stripped of his badge for earlier sex-related offense
A former Anne Arundel County police rookie who was stripped of his badge four years ago after he admitted he had photographed himself fondling a teenager's breasts during a traffic stop pleaded guilty Friday to assaulting another woman.Joseph Francis Mosmiller, 27, was sentenced to 30 days in jail by Anne Arundel County Circuit Court Judge Paul A. Hackner, who told him to consider the incarceration for second-degree assault a "kick in the pants" incentive to change his ways.
The rest of a three-year sentence was suspended in favor of three years on probation. The probation must include evaluations for Mosmiller's alcohol problem, a condition mentioned by Assistant State's Attorney Anastasia Prigge, as well as for potential sex offender issues and treatment as needed.
Hackner recommended that Mosmiller be considered for work release. He works as a landscaper for his father's company.

This guy should have done and be doing time. Police officers who break the law should get the maximum penalties of the law they are supposed to be upholding. (The first offense) Period.
ReplyDeleteAt a minimum he should be on the Kiddie Sex offender sheet!
ReplyDeleteAre you serious??? This dirtbag former "police officer" gets 30 days in jail for what he did? That is absolutely appalling. He is a police officer and should be punished just as severly (if not more severely) than the average person simply because he is one of the people entrusted to uphold the law. He is a classic example of abused power. He is a dirtbag who should have done more time than just 30 days. He has got a problem.
